La Chablisienne 2006 Côte de Léchet Premier Cru (Chablis)

Country: France / Côte de Léchet Premier Cru
Variety: Chardonnay Burgundy
Winery: La Chablisienne / Chablis

The relatively unknown Côte de Léchet vineyard is on the southern bank of the Serein river, which gives it a cool exposure. The result in 2006 is a wine that is light, delicate, floating on fresh green fruits and honeyed toast. It needs food, with its crisp, fine finish.
